I likde your kitchen a lot!! Where do you allocated your bed inside your MBR? According to the photo that you post, the toilet door must be face your bed right? Do you mind about the fengshui? Actually i do have the same organize as you (exactly the same). I found that the whole MBR are so moisture and do have a smell. Mind to take the photo of your complete bedroom after you allocated the bed? TIA. You have build in wardrobe, will it make the walk way become very narrow?

You have build in wardrobe, will it make the walk way become very narrow? Thanks for the compliment for my kitchen. The bed is just outside the toilet as thats the only place where we can place the bed. We do not mind about feng shui. Just that we will try to keep as far as possible from the toilet entrance. Maybe what u can do it to close the toilet door every night before going to sleep. The pic with bed can only be taken after delivery which is scheduled on the 10 jan. Yap, we have a build-in wardrobe. My walk way is just nice for walking since as we wall mounted the TV. Thanks! Jeremy ya lo.. the messy that the worker created is .. but bo bian lo if we wan ourhse to be nice.. Yah lor. All because of the laminated flooring that delayed handing over of the house from my contractor. but all along my contractor;April has been very helpful in getting the defects corrected.

Laminate Floor Expert 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) haiz.. its time to update here again.... Problems and problems and problems with my laminates!!!!!!! Previously was old floorboard installed and found that there are lots of white stains and got to strip of all floorboards for all 3 rooms.... Now... All 3 rooms installed with new floorboards and all 3 rooms have lots and lots of footprints which cant be wiped off!!!! ARRGH!!!! This is so frustrating!!!!! I need to move in soon and how am i going to clean off all the footprints.... Feedback from the laminate contractor that this is a new batch of floorboard with wax over it to have some resistant against water..... and need to be cleaned off using hot water..... I think i cleaned the new floorboard for like 3 times and after that i walk past and i still can see footprints lo!!!! Not sure if you all cant see the footprints on the floor.... Anyway.. This is the packaging of the laminates... Brand is TARKETT Hi Mafia_lim, I am afraid your laminate floor is not TARKETT brand. It is EXQUISITE from china. Thats why there is quality problem.
